Farooq Abdullah disrespecting National Anthem is ‘breach of propriety’: Swamy

New Delhi: With National Conference (NC) patron Farooq Abdullah caught on camera talking on mobile phone while the national anthem was being played after the swearing-in ceremony of Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee in Kolkata, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Subramanian Swamy on Friday termed the act as “breach of propriety” and sought apology from the leader.

“It is a breach of propriety and I believe Farooq Abdullah has done a mistake and therefore he should apologise for it. This way you disrespect the nation too. When the national anthem is being played all stood stand in respect without indulging in other activity at that time,” Swamy told ANI. (ANI)
